C.1890, Ansonia Clock Co., "Jumper No. 2" Bobbing Doll novelty clock.

23 October 2024
Thirty-hour time only movement with seconds dial. Silver plated canister (with relief flower decoration), spelter stand and top decoration are intact, but have some wear on original plating. There is an epoxy repair on cuff around spring exit at bottom of canister (not readily seen). Paper dial is a proper copy with Ansonia trademark and 1886 patent date, but the movement is a bit crooked in the case, and the spring wants to rub the cuff and stop the doll. Will require patience to correct. The bisque doll is a reproduction. Height 14.5Ó $900-$1,200
